Description Brian J. Atkisson 2013-12-20 20:50:58 UTC
Description of problem:
Foreman really needs to support CNAMEs and SRV records for zones that it hosts.  These are critical component in managing DNS for a zone.  We need the ability to create these records within the Foreman UI.  

Adding a CNAME should not be limited to a single host either.  It'll need to support doing things like round-robin CNAMEs and wildcards.  For example (in bind syntax):

bleh  IN  CNAME host1
bleh  IN  CNAME host2

*.service  IN  CNAME host1

Similarly, SRV records need to support round-robin, priority and weight:

_ldap._tcp  IN  SRV  0  5  80  www.example.com.
_ldap._tcp  IN  SRV  0  10  80  www.example.com.

Finally, both SRV and CNAME records should be able to point to hosts that are not managed by Foreman and outside those managed zones.

Thank you.

CNAME support is available starting with smart-proxy 1.13 (all core providers, some 3rd-party ones). There's currently no support for SRV records.

Thank you for your interest in Satellite 6. We have evaluated this request, and we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future.
